You don't get any more comp than those. There were a few vendors that made Wraith knuckle weights, a scale rig, that are not selling as many as they could be.
Yeah maybe not the best way to make a point. Posting memes and calling people names doesn't do anything for anyone.

It's not hard to get on the rules committee, if you think the rules suck and we're all assholes then step up and make it better. Simple as that.

I'm enjoying this immensely . As I don't run this , but have been on a rules committee for other things I can see both sides.

Sounds to me that Eric's piece is legal , but not fair with its decided advantage.

Why not a equal field ?

I am trying to make it better. I only have a problem with 1 rule. How would you like me to go about it.

What makes you feel that it is not an equal field? Not challenging. Just want to see another's view.

What about bolt on calipers? Are those considered knuckle weights if they don't rotate with the discs? Can you put calipers on your knuckles if you don't have disks?

So I need to know if I can run a split bumper in class1 as long as it meets the spec "winder than the windshield" criteria it would fit in the with body style of my build.





Just wanted to verify

I don't see why not. Just make sure the outside bumper pieces are rigid. Looks cool!
